Chapter 95: Good. Master is willing to stay with me even when I go to die (1)

Gu Yunjue felt Mu Chen's killing intent; he put the tea on the table with a smile, inclined his head, blinked his eyes, and asked, ”Master, what’s on your mind?”
Mu Chen's eyes widened and all his anger disappeared at hearing the childish voice, “Master”. Mu felt for the baby’s soul and confirmed it was Gu Yunjue. “How did you become a baby?” Mu Chen was stunned and walked over. Mu stuck out a finger at baby Gu’s face, and kind of missed the feel. When his disciple was a child, Mu found him so cute and adorable beyond Three Realms.
Mu Chen then held Gu Yunjue up into his arms, and instantly Mu’s restlessness was smoothed.
Gu Yunjue smiled and rubbed against Mu Chen's face. ”Master seems to miss me very much when I was a baby. Do you like it?”
Mu Chen shook his head, “Just so so.”
Gu Yunjue snorted, took Mu Chen's pale face with his supple hands and kissed it, then Gu kissed Mu on the thin lips. After the kisses, Gu asked gently, ”What was on your mind? I felt you want to kill me.”
Mu Chen sat down, put Gu Yunjue on his lap, and faintly said, ”I thought you were taken away by a wolf.”
”Which wolf? The stupid Jing Ming?”
”...”
”Why would Master want to kill me for someone took me away?”
”...”
In the silence, Mu Chen lifted Gu Yunjue up and slapped Gu three times in his buttocks. Regardless of Gu Yunjue's response, Mu Chen said in anger, ”How dare to talk back! Behave yourself!”
Without giving Gu Yunjue a chance to speak up, Mu Chen pinched Gu's face and said seriously, ”Keep what you are right now and don't change back. As your Master, I shall educate you and show you how to respect a master!”
Gu Yunjue was speechless. What Mu Chen did was quite contrary to what he had expected. Mu didn’t kiss him, nor did Mu reward his surprise.

Next day, Feng Jiuli saw Mu Chen sauntered around with a child in his arm and exclaimed when he saw Gu Yunjue's appearance. Feng jokingly asked, “Who gave birth to the baby among you two?”
Mu Chen stayed cool while his ear tips suddenly flushed. Mu looked at Feng awkwardly and said with embarrassment, ”How could two men deliver babies? People of your race are so strange.”
Feng Jiuli was stung by Mu’s words and asked in amusement, ”Why do you think it’s strange?”
Mu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, ”Isn’t strange for a man to lay an egg?”
Feng Jiuli’s mouth got twitched at Mu Chen’s remarks and Feng didn’t want to talk about laying egg with Mu. As a matter of fact, there was only one phoenix in the universe, and Holy Place would foster an egg only when Feng were dead. As for how the egg would come out, Feng didn’t know either. With a close look at the cute baby in Mu Chen’s arms, Feng Jiuli found something wrong with it and couldn’t help but smack his lips. Feng’s eyes rolled and he suddenly figured it out, ”Human beings’ taste is so unique.”
Feng Jiuli shouldn’t be blamed for not finding it out at its first place, as Gu Yunjue put on a jade that could hide his breath. Shouldn’t there be partner contract between Mu Chen and Gu Yunjue, Feng wouldn’t be able to find out that Gu Yunjue could become what he was now.
Black Egg, who was forced to chat with his natural enemy for a night, now flew out and caught a glimpse of Gu Yunjue. Seeing the baby Gu, Black Egg silently stretched his wings and covered his face. “In order to take advantage of Palace Master, Master Gu was quite hard-working.”
Gu Yunjue didn’t explain it and instead stretched his hand to touch Mu Chen's face. It was never enough for him to take advantage of Mu Chen.
Mu Chen’s thoughts were pulled back with Gu Yunjue’s touch, and held Gu to stroll on. Mu planned to go back and prepared his baby disciple some food. Baby Gu had many merits. He won’t harass Mu, and couldn’t monkey around; moreover, he was exceptionally adorable.
Half a month later, the group finally arrived at the legendary Lost Land of the East, or Feng Jiuli's Phoenix Valley.
Even though it was called Lost Land, the place was not as lifeless as imagined. Instead, the entire valley was full of towering trees. The iron-gray trunks seemed to be covered with scales and their leaves were golden, whose golden veins could cast shadows on the ground in sunshine. If you looked closely, you could see spirits flowing inside those veins. All these were presented as incomparable scenery that couldn’t be seen anywhere else.
Feng Jiuli stood in front of the Valley, waved his sleeve, and opened a passage out of the thin air. Feng took the lead and walked in.
Mu Chen followed and was amazed to find a hidden world in the Phoenix Valley.
Colorful wild flowers dotted the land, and brought a touch of fragrance into the wind. Rich fire power filled the Valley, which was quite suitable for the growth of fire plants. Under numerous enormous trees that couldn’t be named, colorful flower vines hung down entangled, like swings.
When Mu Chen arrived here, he suddenly felt that his soul power was so active that a cluster of Nine Yang Dark Fire danced at his fingertips and then transformed into a white butterfly, which perched on Mu Chen’s hair. The butterfly fluttered and absorbed fire power around.
Gu Yunjue saw it and smiled at Mu Chen, ”Phoenix Valley deserves its name.”
Mu Chen looked at Gu and found the baby disciple lovelier.
Gu Yunjue leaned over and whispered, ”I will change into a baby later.”
Mu Chen quickly grasped Gu’s unsettled hand and said seriously, ”Behave and stand up.”
A white light flashed and Gu Yunjue changed into a baby again. He raised his hand and said sweetly, ”Master, my legs hurt.”
